Teachers will leave you half way through the class term. Clinical hours are horrible 12 hour shifts 3 days a week plus school time. 12 hour shifts 3 days a week is FULL TIME working at a hospital, most of the time at the hospital you are taking on your preceptors work load. So your working full shifts for free, I wouldnt mind it being 8.5 hour shifts 2 days a week like SJVC "San Joaquin Valley College." On one of our clinical sites we had a student that came from SJVC and that school is a whole lot better then concorde. Not only do they seem more educated but they get Littman stethescopes while we get stuck with the cheap $15 ones and they also get laptops. In my opinion if I could I would leave concorde and go to another school like SJVC or ACC. ACC only does 12 hour shifts 2 days a week. Preparedness: -, Reputation: - Have a Question?

After the course they said they would get us extern ship sites and if you were not hired they would try get you a job. I was fortunate to get an extern site but unfortunately the site i was sent to were not hiring after i completed my 240 hours. I contacted the placement department for help. I gave them my updated resume to help me acquire a place but all in vain.It reached a point i would call the department and no one returned my calls. I got so frustrated. I have been looking for a job for over 1 year now and nothing has come my way. I would advice anyone trying to get into the Dental Assisting program to be VERY CAREFUL IN CAREER CHOICE. There are no jobs!!! The Admission reps should not fool you on what career choice to make. This College is all about how many students they need to admit and make money.
